We are excited about the growth prospects of the company and look forward to working with Skip and Tim and their team,” Randall B. Hale, Managing Director of Rock Hill.

“We knew through prior experience it was time to bring in a financial partner to achieve our growth initiatives and to properly serve our customers given the large amount of work in front of us. Rock Hill is the perfect partner to help LQC achieve the Company’s next chapter of growth,” said Tim Rodabough.
